SUBSIDY.

The conventions OF the Shipping League
that have been held in every part of the
country within the past twelve months
ought to be productive Of some results at
the meeting Of Congress next month.
Something ought TO be done TO revive the
shipping interests OF the country, but no
subsidy should bc INDUCED, because that
is protection in lis WoiS, form The result OF
the recent election in New York is arcbukc
to the whole system oisubsidics, by pro-
tcCtivc tariff or otherwise. The campaign
that resulted In the defeat Of Fred Grant
10y u majority Of 5000 was fought out
on the Democratic platform OF revenue
reform. and the Democrats won. The
days Tor subsidies aud protection have
passed. They have been potent means
in building up the giant corporations and
colossal fortunes that are largely RESPONSE
BILE for the anarhic and communistc agi-
tations that recently eliminated in death
in Chicago. Before the days of million.
airism there was no anauhism in this
country. They are the complement OF

In short speech before the curtain
on Friday night last, Mr., Simon admin
istered a we'll merited rebuke to num-
bel of hoodlums in the house, who, by
their loaferish conduct, hindered those
who could distinguish good acting from
poor, from full enjoyment of the piece
presented. There is one thing Abilene
is not proud of, and that is her hood
lum element, who show their ears up
on the slightest prOvocatiOn. AS Mr..
Simon said, they are too ignorant to
understand good play themselves, but
attend simply to show the intelligent
portion of the audience what internal
asses there are in the world. If we
were ever inclined to take stock in the
Darwinian theory, it is when these
apologies for men and boys make public
exhibitions of themselves. We assure
Manager White that he would receive
the thanks of a long suffering public, by
promptly and energetically firing these
individuals down stairs if they show
the slightest sign of an outbreak in the
future.

Fry, Rover s. Co. bought the land last

of it as above to Mr.. Adams. The lat
ter gentleman viii plat the land at once,

The Abilene Gazette supposes that
the Queen Bee wears the breeches
when at home. To be sure we do; there
is no other party around more entitled
to the breeches, and if there were the
title would be from a masculine stand
ard, likely. We are getting over the
idea that sex is all that is needed to
make a man supreme. Men must sure
ly prove that they are superior in all
things, henceforth and forever, or else
wear petticoats. Out with this non
sense of putting trousers on woman
who has common sense, when her man
is fool. Nature has made this ar
rangement on purpose to have the weak
provided for, that bright people marry
opposites.
